Thanks for the article. With all the unseasonably cold weather we've been having it sure was nice to see some of our summer and fall friends. I really appreciated the butterflies from around the country. Who in the world picked the Lady Bug for Ohio's state insect? I don't know if they were Lady Bugs or Japanese Beetles, but when I lived on my Southeast Fairfield county farm we were inundated with stinky little biting bugs. A friend of mine (Jack Cline) said they were beetles. I don't know if I've ever seen the Lady Bug. If we ever get a chance to vote on our state's insect I'll vote for the Chinese Praying Mantis! Now there's a gardener's friend! I feel blessed to have a few families of these insects in my evergreen shrubs. Thanks again for the fun article. Fred
